It was the first I had heard of I mean a screen reader about a year or
so ago from the magnifiers.org website and have stayed with it ever
since. To get a cheap pc say 200 bucks with xp and a free screen reader
fits a lot of people on low budgets.. for one of my members I sat down
and talked into a note taker and recorded steps of how to use it in
windows, navigation, email etc as I would step by step for her to listen
too. she got the basics and what was needed and can do it by her self
as well. I also done it in txt as well either one would be good
exspecially the audio one say in mpe for it plays in most pc as well

I don't think many have ever heard of free screenreaders for Windows.
Sigh.

Well, there's no reason why they cannot put it on there. But I for one
am glad you posted this to the list. It says the same thing I have been
saying in blogs, podcasts, and on my website for some time now. The
agency stigma still holds unfortunately. It's been a hard uphill climb
for anything who dared to be different than JFW, W E, or Hal. It's
about high time the blindness agency and professional world take a hard
look and give NVDA and related services a chance to serve their
clients; especially, if the price is low cost or even free.
And this is yet another grip in the gear for those who are though
unpaid monitarily speaking, are developing NVDA into being one of the
most stable screen reading solutions out there today.
End of editorial!
Be blessed,
